English term or phrase: leaking or passing valves

In der H&S-Richtlinie eines weltweit tätigen Industrieunternehmens heißt es:

"Any situation where it is not possible to positively isolate all sources of energy will require the review and approval of the facility leader before any work proceeds. This includes any situations with ***leaking or passing valves*** or where it is not possible to verify the system is cleared of material at any of the break-in points."

Die Ventile sind undicht oder ????
Einen Google-Treffer für "passing valve" konnte ich nicht finden.

passing valves Drosselventile

Explanation:
Drosselventile sind manuell betätigte Stromventile zur Beeinflussung des Volumenstroms durch eine einstellbare Querschnittsverengung mittels einer Drosselspindel. Der Volumenstrom ist von Druckdifferenz und Viskosität abhängig. Ein Drehknopf mit Skalenring erlaubt bei den manuell einstellbaren Ventilen eine feinfühlige Wiederholbarkeit der eingestellten Werte.

Reference: leaking or passing (Undichtigkeit / Verluste)

Reference information:
Scheint kein Unterschied zu sein, jedenfalls in dieser Quelle:

"• Passing valves emissions: when as a result of fouling or wear, passing valves (pressure safety valves and block valves) do not close completely, certain amounts of natural gas leak through. These passing valves emissions ultimately end-up in the high-pressure flare or vent-system. The NAM estimated that these emissions amounts to about 50% of the purge gas and
off-gas in the Netherlands [NAM, 1995].
Process emissions can be calculated as a sum of the off-gases from processes, the purge gas, blanket gases and passing-valve emissions."
